Australia got both of those movies after America. We only just got Dog Soldiers out on DVD here. 28 Days Later came out in theatres here around 2 months ago.

Okay, you proved your point. You still got Undead first.:mad:

Not if you count all of those overseas film festivals.

I thought it was an Australian movie though. Makes sense they would show it in their home court first. Oh well.

Nah, Australia has never had any good horror movies really and there have hardly been any made so it wouldn't be all that great trying to get attention to a film by promoting it in a place like that.

Overseas has a wider audience for this sort of thing.

True...but you guys did have BMX Bandits!!!! Dead Calm was great too. Oh, and all the Mad Max films.

I'm not too fond of any of those films and they aren't exactly horror. Horror is the most lacking genre in Australian film.

Been a while since I've seen any of those Mad Max films so I can't remember if I liked them or not. I'm sure I thought they were average.

I was making a joke with the BMX Bandits thing. I thought for sure you of all people would have heard of it. Guess Not.

Dead Calm is a brilliant horror/thriller starring Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane. I think it's a great. Just my opinion though.

And Mad Max is anything but mediocre. I love these films. Man, if you can't remember The Road Warrior, you should go back and watch it. It's a post-apocalyptic classic.

Is Undead Australia's first big horror film (other than Dead Calm)? Surely there are others.

Okay, I wasn't even thinking about New Zealand. Stupid me.

Braindead / Dead-Alive isn't an Australian film. Neither is Bad Taste.

I never heard of that other film.
